Panaji, Jan 15 : Maratha, a word synonymous with Maharashtra politics, is increasingly gaining currency in Goa s political battleground against the backdrop of an ongoing sparring match between two Maratha leaders: Chief Minister Pramod Sawant and Health Minister Vishwajit Rane.
The edgy, behind-the-scenes tussle between Sawant and Rane over the setting up of an Indian Institute of Technology - Goa campus at Melaulim village in the latter s assembly constituency of Valpoi, has brought to the fore a power battle between the two young and ambitious Maratha politicians, ahead of the 2022 assembly polls.
